What are you anxiously waiting to be delivered ???

Before I knew about a different alternative (and probably faster) AC/SS clone I ordered this one.

It required a bit of adjustment on the lapping plate to make the jaws close evenly for proper blade exposure. I think I’m done with cloning around. I admit I prefer the real thing (see what I did there🤡)

I saw those when looking for the current one being passed around that is out of stock and like the look of them. Just didn't jump off the fence yet. Looks sharp.

After some tuning and grinding it appears to be zinc coated brass. The parts interchange with the original, but don’t line up very well. But my curiosity is sated and I have at the very least more PIF material.
